Garnet Lacey
review 1: Garnet und der Vampir ihres Herzens, der attraktive Sebastian, sind endlich glücklich verheiratet. Doch auf der Hochzeitsreise werden sie vom Pech verfolgt. Als die beiden ins Flugzeug einsteigen wollen, entdeckt Garnet einen Eisdämon auf der Tragfläche. Statt zu einem romantischen Ausflug nach Transsylvanien zu fliegen, hängen Garnet und Sebastian nun also in Minneapolis, Minnesota, fest. Doch damit nicht genug: Einige rachsüchtige Götter treiben in der Stadt ihr Unwesen, und Garnet hat alle Hände voll zu tun, um eine Katastrophe zu verhindern.Das letzte Band der Reihe, wie die Geschichten vorher immer wieder gibt es Ärger. Sie lässt einen immer wieder Lachen. Hier passiert nicht nur ein Großes, sondern so viel Action, Spannung und nur die Hälfte wird aufgelös... moret. Obwohl es dann doch etwas zu viel wurde mit dem Ärger. Trotzdem war ein schöner Abschluss dieser Reihe.
review 2: I really kind of hated this book. I only finished it because it was the last of the series and I was already so far in... but this was easily the worst of an already so-so series about Garnet Lacey. This last installment was a complete departure from the formula of the first four, taking the main characters completely away from their home base (and largely ignoring supporting characters that kept me interested up to now). There's a huge focus on the setting, with long, drawn out descriptions of the St. Paul, Minnesota, area -- all of which I found completely distracting and self-indulgent on the part of the author, who's clearly from that area. Overall, the plot was weak to begin with, and the author really didn't do anything at all to redeem it. The plot devices that works in previous books (the love/hate relationship between Garnet and Matyas, the haunting of Sebastian's house, the quirky bookstore) were all left out in favor of a backstory that only served to make Garnet look completely unsympathetic. I was never really married to this series (pardon the pun) -- other series have covered the subject matter better and with a lot more gusto -- but still, I did find a little charm in it and enjoyed it as (very) light bedtime reading. Unfortunately, this was a really disappointing end. less
